Anything Knitted and Crocheted: Hooked on Crochet is all about Dolls!

Anything Knitted and Crocheted

Welcome to my blog. I hope to blog about my knitting and crocheting as well as everyday life. The patterns that I post are original and as such there is copyright on them. When they are based on another pattern there is a link to the pattern.

My husband and I adopted a beautiful dog named Leo. He is a dachshund and absolutely adorable! we adopted him on June 23, 2010 and he has become the love of our lives.

I love to share patterns that I find along the way or to talk about some of the neatest designers that are out there today, so I love to post links to the designs or the designers.

So grab a cup a and sit and enjoy the blog.

Hooked on Crochet is all about Dolls!

So today's patterns are about the crocheted dolls of yesteryear. There are some really neat amigurumi dolls as well...check 'em out.

Good Morning Crocheters,

Okay I'll admit it; I used to play with dolls a lot when I was little, probably for a longer period of time then most little girls. What's not to love about them? You can name them, brush their hair, change their clothes and love it! What's even better is if you can crochet your own doll like this Amigurumi Doll Pattern. This is one of my favorites; she's just so cute.

			Quick and Easy Crochet Doll The details of this pattern are really neat. From the bow in her hair, to the pocket on her dress to her mary jane shoes, she is stylin'.

			Baby's First Doll I really like this pattern because it's simple. Everything is crocheted including the face so it's nice and safe for baby to love.

The “Proselytize Knitting” Badge

The “Proselytize Knitting” Badge - A requirement for all Knitting Scouts, the recipient must do his or her bit to present knitting in a positive light, whilst at the same time avoiding all references to “hipness”, grandmothers, and yoga.

I’m always doing my part in this arena whether it’s spoken or written like in this blog. I teach at my local community league, which was a fluke. I am involved in the Alberta Avenue Initiative and was asked to teach both knitting and crochet. I start with dishcloths as it gives the basics.

The “MacGyver” Badge (Level One) - The recipient must demonstrate clever use of a non-knitting tool in a knitting-related scenario. For instance, recipient has used paper clips as stitch markers, or successfully whittled and then utilized bamboo skewers as dpns.

I’ve used all kinds of things as stitch markers when none were available, and have found clever ways of knitting cables without cable needles using skewers.
